Time to Turn Around

 
 
 
On Saturday, two weeks ago, we took the drive to Sequim to celebrate the birthdays of Shannon, Grace and David.  Joleen was sick and couldn't go, and Ross got caught in a 3 hour wait ferry line in Edmonds. 
We chose to go mountain sightseeing and took the road to Blue Mountain.  The higher we got the dustier, windier, narrower, with sharper drop off, the road became.  Looking at the gas gage with 1 gallon of gas left, we were relieved to find a space in the road with enough room to turn around.
Sometimes it is just wiser, to know when to make that choice and come back another time when we are better prepared
 
 
 Beautiful Olympic Mountains frame Shannon's family.
 The sheer drop off is right behind us.  Hence, I am leaning to make sure I don't fall over backwards.


Grace, with engery to burn, is flying high!

And let this be a lesson to you? Grace is well named - really growing up. Nice to see that you are no longer afraid of heights, Judy......
